Shocking!! Toxic smog in Bangkok is making people cough up and cry blood (graphic photos)

The pollution crisis in Bangkok, Thailand, has become so bad that people are now coughing up and crying blood.

Bangkok has been shrouded in murky haze for weeks, affecting not just humans but pets as well. With people coughing up blood and pets suffering pollution sickness, residents have started trying to protect themselves by putting on masks while on the streets or in public transport. In fact, stocks of pollution masks have run out in many shops.

Traffic exhausts, factory pollution and uncontrolled construction are all being blamed for the pollution crisis that has hit the Thai capital. 

Authorities have seeded clouds to provoke rain, sprayed overpasses with water to catch micro-pollutants and even asked people not to burn incense sticks and paper during Chinese New Year celebrations.

So far, the measures have drawn derision from many Bangkok residents.

 On Wednesday, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration ordered all 437 city-controlled public schools to close from lunchtime through Friday, designating 580 square miles of the city a ‘control area’.

Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang said:

The situation will be bad until February 3 to 4, so I decided to close schools.

He added that he hoped the move would also empty the road of cars on the school run.

A spokesperson for the prime minister’s office said private and vocational schools would be closed as well,

Fleets of drones are set to be deployed to disperse sugary liquid solution to help clear the air of microscopic particles.

Viral 'Fiji Water Girl' sues Fiji Water for using her picture on cardboard cutouts

The 'Fiji Water Girl', who went viral after she photobombed most celebrities' red carpet photos at the Golden Globes, has sued Fiji water for using her photo on cardboard cutouts without seeking her permission.

Kelleth Cuthbert enjoyed the fame she got at the Golden Globes and even got a TV role out of it. But she is suing Fiji for using a picture of her in a cardboard cutout campaign, placed at shops in the US, which she claims was launched without her permission.

Kelleth is claiming she never signed a deal allowing Fiji to use her image on the standees.

FIJI Water has since hit out at Kelleth, claiming her lawsuit is ‘entirely without merit’.

In a statement shared with Metro.co.uk, they said:

This lawsuit is frivolous and entirely without merit. After the Golden Globes social media moment, we negotiated a generous agreement with Ms. Cuthbert that she blatantly violated.

We are confident that we will prevail in Court. Throughout our history, we have had a sterling reputation working with talent.

Diana Ross to ring in her 75th birthday with a Grammy performance celebrating her musical legacy

Legendary singer, Diana Ross, 74,  who earned the Grammy's Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012 will be celebrating her birthday and musical legacy at this year's 61st annual Grammy Awards.

The Detroit-born songstress who has been honored with 12 Grammy nominations throughout her six-decade career will ring in her 75th birthday with a performance and tribute at the awards ceremony Sunday, February 10, 2019.

A statement from the Recording Academy said the performance will 'honor the icon and celebrate the rich history of her greatest musical accomplishment.'

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has alleged that the Federal Government through the Office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) has directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to work with internet service providers to shutdown internet access during the forthcoming elections.

According to Governor Wike, shutting down internet access by the NSA and INEC is aimed at facilitating the rigging of the 2019 General elections. The governor said this when he received a courtesy visit by Savannah Centre Council on Peaceful and Violence Free in Nigeria at the Government House Port Harcourt.

"The National Security Adviser has met with INEC to ensure that internet service providers shutdown the internet, so that foreign bodies won't see what's happening in the country during the elections. They will jam all the frequencies and internet services to stop real time communication during the elections. This plot to rig the forthcoming elections is a recipe for violence. They will not succeed in whatever they are planning. The world will be informed about their criminal activities".

 The governor said that the negative actions of the Buhari administration indicate that they will not accept defeat when they lose the forthcoming elections. He advised President Muhammadu Buhari to emulate Former President Goodluck Jonathan who placed Nigeria above personal consideration.

"I don't think this administration will willingly accept defeat. They should emulate Former President Goodluck Jonathan who lost elections and accepted the outcome. There was no litigation. He went back home and did not generate crisis", he said.

Embloggerjames STORY!!! “Love Knows No Bound” How I Slept With My Maths Teacher [Episode 4]

[Episode 4]

………..Later that day

The class was over and I went to see Mr Williams, so many thoughts crossed my mind as I was going.

I knocked at the door to his office, he came opening the door, I was about greeting him when I sighted Miss Azuko, a young female teacher, who teaches the junior students Basic science. She was sitting comfortably on a chair. I wonder what she was doing in his office.

What’s my business? I thought to myself.

“Good afternoon sir, you asked me to see you” I said.

“Yes I did” Mr Williams replied.

“Oh! I’ll excuse you now”, Mrs Azuko said.

“Okay then, we’d talk later”. He said back to her.

“Good afternoon ma”, I greeted.

“How are you Kunbi?” she asked as she made her way through the door.

“Kunbi, I gave an assignment in class which you all submitted, of all the students In class you had the lowest score which means you probably weren’t listening in class or you didn’t understand what I taught you”.

As he said this, I felt relieved as this wasn’t what I thought he’d call me for.

I was already thinking of what to say when he said ; “I was told you are one of the bright student in class and if this is happening, it means there’s something wrong. Don’t you like me?” he asked feeling fly.

I immediately became a stammerer as I didn’t know the reply to give him. I mean if I had the chance I could shout on top of my voice saying “I don’t like you”.But come to think of it, what’s this guy feeling Like? Why does he think every girl has to like him ? He probably was reading my mind when he said; “look, I asked that because students tend to have a problem with a course when they feel disgusted by the teacher and I don’t want this subject to be a problem for anyone of you.

So let’s help ourselves here”, he said giving a brief smile.

“Oh! Okay thank you sir, I’ll do better next class”, I said.

“Good then, I’ll be expecting that and if you don’t, we’re going to have a problem”, he added.

God, I already have a problem with you annoying being, I thought to myself .

“ I promise to do better”, I said giving him a weak smile. While I was leaving, he asked that I distribute the notes to the class while he handed them over them to me.

I left his office with so much anger. What guts does he have to talk to me like that? My hatred for this guy knows no bound. I wish I could change school already

The rest of the term was pretty fast. We got to the end of the term in no time and my result wasn’t so good. My result would have been perfect if my maths grade was cool.

It got mummy really angry and furious and she was willing to do anything for my maths grade to be better.

We resumed back to school after our two weeks break and Mummy wasn’t joking about my maths grade. It was early in the morning and I was ready for School when Mummy called out to me.

“Kunbi, you need to get this maths right because your gce exam would be starting soon and you have every right to partake in it” she said in a low tone.

“I know mum, I’m trying my best”.

“Your best isn’t enough, I need to be in your school tomorrow, she said.

It was a Thursday morning when mummy stormed my school compound. She didn’t even ask to see the principal, she went straight to Mr Williams office with my help of course. We got in and yes Mrs Azuko was there again.What’s between these two? This early? She couldn’t even wait till noon, I thought to myself. I’m really annoyed.

“Good morning ma”, they both chorused greeting mummy.
“Good morning”, mummy said back to them.

“Please I’d like to see the maths teacher”, she added.
“Here I am ma, how can I be of help to you?” he asked with a smile.

I stayed there mute as Mrs Azuko said “I’ll excuse you”

Mummy gave her a kinda look that I couldn’t even understand while she walked passed me touching me as if she was greeting me.

I felt a little disgusted by her touch. I just kind of dislike the woman now for no reason (oh darling Kunbi you’re becoming a devil in the making) I said to myself.

“Well my daughter failed maths, And this has been going on for a long time now” Mummy said with a straight face.

I thought to myself that I was in trouble because truth be told, Mr Williams asked me to always see him whenever I don’t understand things. I hope he doesn’t tell mummy that.

“Well I’m sorry to hear that ma, this was like a common probelm prior to my emergence but I’m happy that there was a positive result this time, but not all.

I’ll put the blame on myself that I’ve not really paid attention to her”, he said that giving me a stern look.We both know he lied there, for he has called me severally to ask if I undertand things and I keep saying yes while I continued failing. I wonder why he lied against himself .

Anyway I felt happy within but I still kept on my mean look like “who asked you to lie for me”.

“Its fine sir, the reason why I’m here is so that you can pay special attention to her , because she’s going to partake in this upcoming GCE exam and I dont want any mess up.

I don’t want her father’s family to have a cause to blame me at the end. Dakun, se bi omo Yoruba ni e?”

“Beeni ma”, he said with a smile.

Mummy can be so annoying, whey did she have to bring up daddy issues here ?

Please I want you to take her lessons at home after school
“Mummy…. “I said looking at her .

She looked at me but looked away and continued with her discussion with Mr Williams.

“Don’t worry, I trust she’s in good hands or is she not?”

“She is ma” he replied smiling

“Give me your number so we could bargain for price, I have to rush to work, I’m running late”

“Okay ma” he said as he wrote out his number and mum was set to leave.

I followed her and she said “That young guy is charming and he seems like a good guy. Kunbi don’t trouble him, And make sure you’re a good girl” she said smiling at me.

“I’m sure he won’t harm you, he won’t dare. I just feel he’s trustworthy” she said giving me an affirmative look.Okay mum!” was all I could say.

She drove off, and it dawned on me that I was stuck with Mr Williams.

[Episode 3]

Ring ring ring!

It was my phone ringing, I immediately rushed to the table to pick up my phone. It was Shade calling me.

I immediately picked the call while I heard a sharp “hello” at the other end.

“Hey there” I said. “Pretty thing, how are you?” shade asked. “I’m good and you?” I asked “I’m okay too” she replied.

“So, what’s up? you get gist for me?” I asked.

“No o! I just wanted to tell you to bring the novel tomorrow” she said “Okay! I’ll do that” I replied.

“ That reminds me Kunbi, have you done your maths assignment?”

I rolled my eyes at her as if she could see me. “Can’t you all give me a break from this maths” I thought to myself.

“No joor, you know how I and maths are, I’ll do it when I get my bearing” I replied in an angry tone.

“Ha! And you know tomorrow is Wednesday, he’s going to ask us to submit it tomorrow” she said sounding concerned.

“Don’t you understand it?” She asked.

“I understood it in class but I don’t know about now” I said sounding moody already.

”Eyah! You should have gone with us to his office the other day, you’d have had a better understanding” she said sounding concerned.

“It’s Fine, thanks”. I said giving her a quick reply.  “Hmmm Kunbi! you and this your stubborn head. But you must admit that Mr Williams is good or what do you say?”

“Ehn that’s his business” I replied angrily “Haba! na fight? What did he do to you? She asked. “Nothing o!” I replied already getting irritated.“I just Don’t like unserious people” I added. “Haha! madam seriousness! loosen your grip and stop being this way joor.

The guy is good to me.. abi do you have a crush on him?” She asked as if to say she was teasing me.

“I think you’re sick” I said angrily. “Eheheh, you won’t tell me now before everyone finds out” she said jokingly.

“Shade, there’s nothing to find out. I’m sorry, I’ve to leave now” I said angrily. “Okay, goodnight dear” she said.

“Bye”, I said, dropping the call almost immediately without waiting for a reply from her.

What’s wrong with this Shade girl? always joking around with stuffs. I don’t even know why she brought up the Maths issue and stating that mans name. She’s annoying.

Speaking of maths now, I have to do my assignment so Mr steal your girl won’t have nothing on me. Picking on me isn’t what I want from him.

*opening the maths text book* everything in the book felt weird and new. I started feeling dizzy so I closed the book.

“I don’t seem to get this right, I’ll just do what I know and submit to him, I can’t kill myself”, I thought to myself.

It’s Wednesday and yes we’re having Mr Williams’ class again. I don’t think there’s anything I can do about his presence, I think I’ll just have to cope with him .

He was in class in no time, and we all rose to greet him in our usual chorus “Goodmorning sir, we’re happy to see you, God bless you, Amen!”He replied “Good morning to you all” with a smile on his very cute face. He began the class with a motivational speech.

“This Is a new dimension”, I thought to myself. I didn’t really pay attention to what he was saying.

The only thing that made sense to me was when he said “don’t give up, keep pushing, your reward is near” people cheered him when he was done.

No way! even the guys laughed and cheered him also. This guy has a way of getting people to love him, I guess I’m his only enemy now.

He asked that we submit our assignment, we all did, while he wrote out the answers to the assignment on the board. Some people were happy with the answers and didn’t hesitate to show their feelings.

Some even went as far as shouting “I got it” those kind of people make me sad because they always remind of how bad I am when it comes to maths.

He continued the class with the day’s topic but he couldn’t go far with the topic as his time got exhausted when the bell rang and he asked that we study the topic before next class.

He was about leaving the class when Ezinne helped him with our books so he could mark our assignment. He left the class and everyone soon started talking about him and the speech he gave.While they were all talking about him, I rest my head on my table thinking of how Mr Williams could be such a charmer.

Shade rushed down to me looking so happy as if she won a lottery.

“Isn’t Mr Williams just a total package? His girlfriend is enjoying” she said. I hissed at her statement and I replied saying; “I just Don’t like him” .

“Is there anyone you ever like? Sadist!” Titi said to me in a rude Manner while she gave me a bad look.

I ignored her acts while I hoped she doesn’t report me to Mr Williams.

Few minutes later, our literature teacher came in and she started to teach us her own topic. The topic for the day was “The genre of literature”. She was in the middle of an explanation when Mr Williams walked in.

I was surprised to see him,I looked away, while some girls smiled at him. He exchanged greetings with our literature teacher, and asked for her permission.

“Who is Adekunbi Adebayo?” he asked. shock was written all over my face as I looked up to him wondering why he was here asking who I was. “I’m Kunbi sir”, I said in a low tone.Please see me after your class”, he said, while he walked out of the class.

The literature teacher made a comment about him but I wasn’t interested. I was busy thinking of what or why he wanted to see me.

“Could it be that Titi had gone to tell him what I said about him? Or what could it be?

Thank you all for taking your time to read it.

Aba resident passes through dry gutter following heavy rain that flooded roads but left the drainage dry

The irony in Aba, according to a resident, is that when it rains, the roads get flooded but the drains stay dry.

A resident was pictured walking inside the gutter after it rained because the street was badly flooded so the gutter became the best alternative.
